Plumber

Our tap has been dripping for a long time

maybe it is time to change a gasket or two?

I turn off the water and I'll remove piece by piece

checking the instruction every now and thenOld gaskets off, new on

a bit of grease, and then putting it together again.
Turning the water carfully on...
Will the water keep where it should be?

Dripping all gone!
Over to some grub:
Fish and veggies

What about a bit of barley instead of rice?

Very tasty!

Peas and Love

These round little friends of mine

Make a wonderful Soup!
It takes some good hours to make

But it's not a lot of work!

Dried green peas,

in water over night

The meat is smoked pork

Peas, onions, meat, carrots, salt, pepper, thyme
Slowly simmering for hours

Soup of peace, Soup of Love

It's the most wonderful

day of the week!

The Pizza day

The Friday!

Do I need to say more?
And have you bye the way
chewed on a warm cherry tomatoe
straight from the oven?
The hotness of it?
The palate numming feeling?
Anyway, have a wonderful weekend!

Fishy meatballs, or meaty fishballs, thats the question

I love salmon

usually ovenbaked

But sometimes I like to vary

Today it's fishy meatballs

If you have a food processor

These are so easy to make!

Salmon, garlic, herbes, some potato starch, an egg, salt and pepper

Served with wholegrain pasta, pesto, cherry tomatoes and peas

and some feta cheese for the delight of it!

Yum!

Snowy blue morning at the cabin

It's a while since I've been to the cabin

This weekend we went there,

with our two teenagers.

It's not to bad that they still enjoy a weekend at the cabin

with their mum and dad.

Gandma and granddad came on Saturday

and stayed until Sunday

It was crowdy but peaceful

and everyone was in a good mood

The snow was falling quietly

and covered our tracks
On Sunday we returned home
rested, happy, scruffy and with a pile of laundry
Just as we are supposed to do, after a
Weekend at our cabin: Goro

Chaotic cod and two halves of an egg

It's an egg:

And a useful one too!

For salt and pepper

And this was my chaotic
oven baked cod
Lovely!

Hummus and hearts

It's a first time for everything

Today I made and tasted hummus for the first time

I've been wanting to for a long time,

but I never got around to do it, until today.

I liked it, and it was so easy to make!

First time, but not the last time for sure!

When my sister called and said she and the boys were coming for a visit

I made these,

and thats not my first time!

We love impulsive Sunday evening parties!

Waffles, kids, coffee and chatting!

Friday food

It's Friday
In Norway many familys serve Tacos,

this have become a favourite amongst the young ones!

We're not so in to taco shells

but we like tortillas and home made naan bread

with loads of veggies, beans, chicken mince, cheese,

salsa, kesam etc

The idea is

You choose what you want!

I'm wrapping my stuff

in a tortilla

Messy eating,

I don't mind at all!

I've got a spoon to help me out!

Potato soup

Leftover potatoes, mashed swede, and sausage?

add some water, onion, garlic, thyme, salt and pepper..

blend

and voila

potato soup

very smooth, very tasty!

That's some good and easy Monday grub!

Every now and then, a fresh start if you want

We are in January now

And we're supposed to swap these

with theseThats allright

We can't be celebrating and eat Christmas grub for ever

It's time to embrace the simple life again

and maybe get back to hole number two in the belt again

(instead of number three and four)

Anyway

There's still one more

rich dinner to go:

Pinnekjøtt

Lovely!

Well then, all set and "vel bekomme" as we say in Norwegian
